This is interesting as I'm looking for the opposite answer. I want my Deck to wake up when I turn on my Xbox controller, but it doesn't right now unless I wake it up with the power button first. If you find something outside of this thread, please let me know.
Only the new OLED decks have the Bluetooth chips with wakeup. If you have an OG deck, you're plum outta luck, I'm afraid.
Damn. Oh well. Good to know though. Thanks!
I have the USB wireless receiver for my Xbox controller and it works on the steam deck to wake it, but I needed to install a driver. And I need to reinstall it every time I update my steam deck.
Where did you get the driver for it?
Here's the guide I followed
I needed to tweak the instructions a bit, but it looks like there was an update recently with a link to a script. Hopefully that makes it easier than before.
Do you have the oled deck? It has a new bt chip and firmware that enables this
the OLED deck has the feature from what I can tell to wake in Bluetooth.
my older LCD deck, does not seem to have the feature.
